Announcing availability of OrbiOS 2.1
We’re excited to announce that OrbiOS 2.1 is now available for immediate download here: https://www.netgear.com/support/product/RBK50.aspx#download https://www.netgear.com/support/product/RBK40.asp...
I know this shouldn't be the fix, but for those that tried tp upgrade to FW ver 2.1 and are having these connectivity issues, have you tried to roll back to v1.12.0.18, and if so, does it fix the stability? I'm on v1.12.0.18 right now, and things have been running great. I wouldn't mind helping out with the testing of 2.1, but only if I know that rolling back to ver 1 will at least restore connectivity, if things get to bad.
Otherwise, I'll just patiently wait here on 1.12.
Also, I see there is a version 2.0.0.74 out there. Are there stability issues with that too?
2.0.0.74 has terrible connectivity issues. 2.1.1.12 just made them worse. I hear the 1.x versions are fairly stable. However, I also hear that they have some major security bugs which were patched in the newer versions. I'd be rather concerned about using 1.x and leaving my home vulnerable to hacking.
